EU Energy – The way Forward The Energy Union Where the EU wants to go: A secure, sustainable, competitive, affordable energy for every European What this means: • Energy security, solidarity and trust • A fully integrated internal energy market • Energy efficiency first • Transition to a long-lasting low-carbon society • An Energy Union for Research, Innovation and Competiveness 3
Energy in EU & Growth ● Primary energy consumption 1995 ≈ 2013 (~1570 Mtoe) ● GDP in 2013 ~3 trillion € higher than 1995. ● Economic growth is decoupled from energy consumption Source: Energy Efficiency Communication 2014 – COM (2014) 520 4
